The Lamplighter

The Purple Day Podcast is the audio from our Monday episodes of Storytime in the Schoolhouse. Please note: Storytime is written and recorded for the screen. Some elements of Storytime will transfer better than others.

Long ago, there was a lamp at the center of town that everyone in the village used to keep their own lanterns lit. However, one day a young woman found that the lamp keeper had grown old and the light in the lamp had gone out. She set off into the forest to look for a light to bring back to the lantern. After quite a journey through the forest, the young woman found the light in the forest and brought it back to the village, sharing it with everyone she met along the way. This young woman then became the next lamplighter.
